PRIEST Continued from page 1A Bullock's defense attorney were not immediately returned. Police have said a passing security guard saw someone on church grounds about 2 a.m. New Year's Day and called authorities. An officer confronted Bullock outside the rectory, checked his papers from being jailed hours earlier for public intoxication, did a field sobriety test, and determined he was mentally competent to be in public, police have said. Bullock was then directed to a shelter several blocks away. Harpham wrote that deputies who had taken Bullock to jail said he ''was not in a normal mental state.'' The security guard, who does not work for the church, saw the man again about 3:30 a.m. and told him to be on his way but did not call police again. Bullock was arrested on Jan. 2 by sheriff's deputies outside Garberville. Deputies said his stepfather was driving him to turn himself in. Insane Clown Posse sues feds over gang label DETROIT (AP) — The Insane Clown Posse sued the U.S. Justice Department on Wednesday over a 2011 FBI report that describes the rap-metal duo's devoted fans, the Juggalos, as a dangerous gang, saying the designation has tarnished reputations and hurt business. The American Civil Liberties Union filed the lawsuit in Detroit federal court on behalf of the group's two members, Joseph Bruce, or Violent J, and Joseph Utsler, or Shaggy 2 Dope. It also names four fans as plaintiffs. The FBI report on criminal gangs labeled the Juggalos as a ''loosely organized hybrid gang.'' It said those who identify as Juggalos have committed assaults and vandalism, and a ''small number'' of them have engaged in more serious crimes. The lawsuit contends that the gang designation violates free speech and due process rights. ''It is a quintessential civil liberties case challenging government abuse,'' said Michael Steinberg, the legal director of ACLU Michigan. At a news conference in Detroit, Bruce, 41, and Utsler, 39, wore their trademark face paint. The Detroit-area pair said Juggalos are like a family, not a gang, and they want their fans purged from the report. ''Our merchandise sales are just about cut in half. ... You don't see the stickers in the back windows anymore because everyone's afraid to wave the flag in their car,'' Bruce said. ''They're afraid they're going to get pulled over and harassed.'' He said law enforcers ''just fear what they don't understand.'' Juggalos have lost custody of children, lost jobs and been denied housing because they're fans, Bruce said. Saura Sahu, an attorney for the group, called the government's depiction of the Juggalos absurd. front of you checks — are you going to check or are you going to fold? We propose that you check." Muench recommended that the county accept the partial award, but continue to push other groups to put pressure on the governor to expand the funding. Goodwin said the county wouldn't have to make a final decision to scale down its project until Tehama County Superior Courthouse at the Wetter Hall location on Walnut Street.

While there is still one location open in Oroville, the last Tehama County location, Pronto Market, closed in 2013 after Frank was diagnosed with cancer. A committee of former employees, friends and family were formed to help Frank generate funds for his cancer treatments and expenses.

Dinner tickets are available for a donation of $20, which includes the meal, raffle, silent auction, live auction and live entertainment.

Prison secretary seeks delay in inmate court order SACRAMENTO (AP) — California will have no choice but to move 4,000 more inmates to private prisons in other states if federal judges refuse to postpone a court-ordered population cap, state Corrections Secretary Jeffrey Beard said Wednesday. The state faces an April 18 deadline to reduce overcrowding in its 33 adult prisons. The judges have found reducing overcrowding to be the key step in improving inmate medical and mental health care, but Gov. Jerry Brown is seeking a threeyear delay. Beard said such a delay would give the state time to build cells for nearly 3,500 additional inmates. That would bring the state close to meeting the federal population cap while avoiding the need to send more inmates elsewhere. It also would give time for rehabilitation programs to work, he said. Those programs are designed to reduce the number of convicts who commit new crimes after their release and then get sent back to prison. ''We really don't want to do more out-of-state either, so we're hopeful we get our extension,'' Beard said in an interview. ''But if we don't get that, then our only alternative will be to increase the outof-state (transfers).'' A panel of three federal judges has set a Friday deadline for an end to negotiations between Brown's administration and attorneys representing inmates. The judges already postponed by nearly four months their original Dec. 31 deadline for the state to reduce its inmate population to about 110,000 inmates. Beard said that gave the state crucial time to begin operating what used to be a private prison in the Mojave Desert, open a medical hospital in Stockton and send additional inmates to five community correctional facilities within California. Without those moves, the state would be looking at sending up to 7,000 inmates out of state instead of 4,000, he said. California already houses roughly 8,900 inmates in Corrections Corporation of America prisons in Arizona, Mississippi and Oklahoma. The Department of Finance estimates it costs the state $29,500 a year for each inmate housed out of state, although that amount is less than the average per-inmate cost within California because mostly younger and healthier prisoners are selected for the transfers. The judges last year ordered the state not to move more inmates out of state, but Beard said he expects the judges would lift that ban when negotiations end this week. An additional delay would give the state time to open an expansion of the Stockton medical facility this spring to house about 1,100 mentally ill inmates. The state last week also detailed plans to build three medium-security housing units over the next 2 1/2 years at the Richard J.

The combined cost of all the new housing is $700 million. Beard would not say if the budget Brown will propose Friday calls for building additional prison cells. California already has reduced its prison population by about 25,000 inmates during the last two years, mainly through the governor's criminal justice realignment plan that is sending lower-level offenders to county jails instead of state prisons. Yet the inmate population keeps climbing, said Don Specter, director of the nonprofit Prison Law Office and one of the attorneys representing inmates in the long-running federal case. ''It's continuing to increase, so any building would be spending billions of dollars for only a temporary fix,'' he said. ''It also shows that realignment was only a temporary fix, as well.''
